Over the next three years, China's portable medical electronics market cagr) will exceed 30%, the scale of the market in 2006 from 80 billion yuan of rapid expansion of $28 billion by 2011.

Portable medical electronics is starting

Portable medical products and medical information products is the present domestic embedded system manufacturer of medical electronics market into the window. Sadie consultant in shenzhen "2009 China international medical electronics assembly" pointed out that, besides mindray medical devices native domestic manufacturers are rarely, foreign manufacturers still far not occupy the market share of the market, and 48 percent majority still exploit, domestic medical electronics manufacturing enterprise opportunity many (figure 1).

After 20 years of development, China has reached the application of embedded system is the level and scale, especially in the consumer electronics and computer products, such as the mobile information, media player, GPS, Internet and computer and electrical appliances product batch production brought in purchasing semiconductor components, processing, etc. Of course, the traditional embedded systems, using them, chip venders in biological sensors, power management and MCU/digital signal processor (DSP) on the integrated advantage in medical field, the advantages, such as TI company still apparent glucose meter and based on MSP430 blood oxygen analyzer.

China's household and medical portable products market in the primary stage, because of the universal consciousness of national health promotion, cheap price of household portable medical products sale well by financial crisis, rarely affect. This kind of products mainly are electronic device, portable blood glucose meter and electronic hearing, medical portable electronics products are the main representative multi-parameter monitor, ultrasonic diagnosis and fetus and maternal guardianship instrument, domestic electronic enterprise in the accumulation of experience for many years based on embedded system into the product development and design should be possible.

Second is the medical information products, such as Shanghai jiaotong university institute of biomedical engineering development of wireless service platform for monitoring. The core is a platform of parameter measurement instrument iCare (signs), GSM module and network, intelligent analysis software and server, can deploy in community and hospital, similar system has been successfully applied in domestic and industrial control, as long as the parameter measurement instrument design perfect signs, system construction and implementation of difficulty is not great. Be like again, Intel corporation Mobile Clinical Assistant (Mobile Clinical Assistant) (see chart 2), Intel is the core of high performance, low power consumption, Mobile portable systems can be easily decorate in hospital wards, patient home and the doctor's office, through professional manufacturer of medical instrument and equipment production and customization has completely accord with medical sealing, disinfection and safety requirements. Domestic enterprises should be embedded system has the ability to design a similar device, and if domestic ARM SoC solution, the volume is small, can be cheaper, still can lower power consumption.
